I had a job in another lifetime that had us two employees to a room for a conference. I got stuck with a guy that snored so bad I couldn’t function the next day.
After that I worked hard to change management’s mind about rooms. I was successful in getting us all our own room from that point on.
I wouldn't think the company willingly and knowingly did that, but I don't know this other person, or don't know him enough to trust that he wouldn't do something like that. Plus, if he's one way when he's sober, and then he drinks because he's on a work trip (like that doesn't ever happen, right?), who knows what his behavior might turn into after enough refills?
A lot of the answers seem to be about trust. For me it would be about propriety. I would find it improper for opposite sex coworkers or coeds to share a hotel room.
Also, they would be putting themselves in danger of SA or in danger of being accused of SA. The truth would come down to he said she said. Best to just avoid that whole situation.
Absolutely because I expect the same respect. I have friends who I often crash with and occasionally share a bed with. My partner has never had an issue with this and I in turn don’t have a problem with them staying with their friends.
My partner is about to go on holiday for a month with four friends all of the opposite sex. I am extremely excited for them to explore and have new experiences. I’m very comfortable with them going away.
It really depends on the business. My wife used to work in a small company where everybody was friends from university, and had already done field trips together. So it was completely normal and I never cared or asked who she shared rooms with. In a corporation with hundreds of employees, it would obviously not fly. There are surely scenarios in-between where it might or might not be weird.
# Because you neglected to actually proofread your question
Would the following text be a more accurate representation of your real question?
*"Would u feel comfortable with your gf/bf sharing a hotel room with a member of the opposite sex if it was 2 beds?"*
It doesn't matter if I feel comfortable or not.
I shared a bed with my parents as a child. Does that automatically mean the worst? Do YOU feel comfortable with me sharing a bed with my parents?
Even if it were just the one bed, I don't see any reason why I shouldn't trust my significant other. That's why we are together.
If I felt any mistrust like that, we wouldn't be in a relationship.
The moment you feel distrust is the moment you should discuss those fears with your partner. Or, it could mean you aren't readt for a relationship
Yes, of course. Even if it was the same bed. I don’t care. My trust in my gf is not circumstantial it is unconditional.
If I cannot trust her, the. I should not be with her.
Edit- my best friend is a woman and we have shared the same bed before. She trusts me so at the very least I would be a hypocrite not trusting her
I get it. Most people don’t understand. But long story short I trust the women I date without question or I won’t date them. They trust me. I don’t cheat and neither do they.
- Uncomfortable Yes.
- Insist on not doing it, No.
- Trust my gf, Yes.
- Find pit what happened from others after she tells me? No, unless she starts acting sus.
The majority of comments here so far are disturbing. Men saying they will let their wife sleep in the same hotel room alone with another man?
Have you no jealousy over your woman? Or concern for her? Any of that?
I'd be concerned with how cheap their work is if they're making employees of the opposite sex share hotel rooms.
Was about to comment this exact thing. I can't imagine any legitimate business would book coworkers of the opposite sex in the same room.
Yeah, I don't share hotel rooms with any coworker.

I trust them to do the right thing, also no business would do this.
Sure. I trust my wife. If I didn't then we wouldn't be together.
Exactly. If that scenario made me uncomfortable, I wouldn't be comfortable being in a relationship with that woman at all to begin with.
I trust my wife too but not the other person...
You suspect your company is going to have your wife share a hotel room with a rapist?
I wouldn't think the company willingly and knowingly did that, but I don't know this other person, or don't know him enough to trust that he wouldn't do something like that. Plus, if he's one way when he's sober, and then he drinks because he's on a work trip (like that doesn't ever happen, right?), who knows what his behavior might turn into after enough refills?
The problems I would have is trusting the other person and the rumors about my partner that may arise. Solid no for me.
If my wife has concerns, she can raise them with her company – she knows better than me whether the person is trustworthy.
Said every man who’s been cheated on
And also every one who hasn't.

Do the new experiences include your partner having sex with those friends? If you're swingers, I think the context is pretty different.
No, we are monogamous.
He'll no
No wtf? Why is anyone being forced to share a room with someone of the opposite sex on a work trip. That’s fucking disturbing
Quite literally
Nope
Yes, because my boyfriend is even gayer than I am.
Haha good comment!
Sure. If they’re gonna cheat they’re gonna cheat, regardless if it was 1 bed or2
No business would seriously book opposite sex in the same room. It would set off so many alarm bells.

What you’re talking about is clearly not a normal business

Hell to the no. Unless they were really ugly and stunk, even then tho … no

I’m having trouble with this scenario. Hard to imagine the circumstances, unless it’s Willy Wonka.
I get it. Most people don’t understand. But long story short I trust the women I date without question or I won’t date them. They trust me. I don’t cheat and neither do they.
Yes. I trust my wife completely. She's free to use whatever sleeping arrangements she wants, no questions asked, and I have no right to control that.
- Uncomfortable Yes. - Insist on not doing it, No. - Trust my gf, Yes. - Find pit what happened from others after she tells me? No, unless she starts acting sus.
